Observations from Super Bowl XXIII (or maybe XXIV).
 

I'm doing a little work and the TV is showing the Super Bowl between the 49ers and the Bengals back in the 80s. A few observations:

1. Tim Krumrie's leg fell off partway through the first quarter, but he is refusing to go to the hospital. He's watching the game, and I think a trainer has his lower leg in a box with ice. They didn't show the injury, I don't think, but I'm not watching that closely.

2. Ronnie Lott hits like a truck.

3. Bill Romanowski just got an interception, but I can't tell if he's on drugs or not. He's a rookie, so the announcers don't know yet that he's a piece of garbage.

4. Chris Collinsworth is not as skinny as he is today, but he's still pretty skinny. He fell down making a catch and got hurt even though no one was around.

5. Jim Breech, the Bengals' kicker, wears a Size 5 right shoe and a Size 7 left shoe. The announcers mentioned that he wears the smallest shoe in the league.

6. I keep looking for John Candy, but I don't see him.

7. I blame Jack Steadman for the fact that I'm not watching a Chiefs game right now.

I'd only disagree with one point... # 2.

Ronnie Lott hit like a Bullet Train at speed...

on a side note after seeing Romanowski on pros verses joes he is absolutely the worst excuse for a professional athlete ever the joes ran over around and through him like he was a jv water boy.

I'm watching too.

Wow, Someone else remember the story about Montana mentioning in the huddle that Candy is on the sidelines before the final drive too. :clap:

The Niners could have lost this game easily. The Bengals didn't come thru on several opportunities for dropped INT's and fumbles.

Rice had a MONSTER game. 11 rec 215 yards. Both SB records

The feild was really tore up, last SB that I remember feild conditions being that poor. With tomorrow's game in south Florida and a 40% chance of rain now wonder if we will see similar conditions.

Brooks was a much better running back than Ickey Woods.

I think almost everyone knows that story.

What story?

Montana has three minutes to score. He's turning into a machine now.

I liked David Fulcher, but he just took kind of a cheap shot at Roger Craig.

Ronnie Lott....best KC Chiefs player ever...

ya i wish. did he even get any PT ?

its that USC training makes anybody into a hall of famer

Must've told him six months ago that they would be doing random drug testing.

hahaha..no, thats the joke. He was on the roster but i dont think ever had any playing time in a Chiefs uniform??

That was around 95 or so??

He did look rather deflated

Montana just went 8 for 9 and led the 49ers on a 92-yard touchdown drive to win the Super Bowl. I think he's going to be the next Tom Brady.

Greatest drive in SB history. Joe ruled. :thumb:
